Please note that the Winery tasting room will be closing at 4 pm the first three weekends of December and beginning Winter Break on the 18th of December.

The deadline for reserving your place at the August 12 Mason&Dixon Rendezvous at Stargazers Vineyard is August 10. Please send your check for $20 per person for the meal to 1024 Wheatland Drive Coatesville PA 19320. 

All are welcome, even if you skip the food and just drink Stargazers wine.  But if you do not pre-pay, the caterer cannot accommodate you.

The event is rain or shine.

254 years ago Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon made their last push westward to complete measuring the boundary between Maryland and Pennsylvania. By 1767 they were nearly across the length of the border when events transpired which halted their effort.

This year a new book has been published which elaborates on these events and reveals more of the human interest side of the story, BOUNDARIES by Sally M. Walker. These facets will be revealed by the obscure but well versed raconteur, the proprietor of Stargazers Vineyard. One review of the book describes it as appealing to historical minded scientists. Who better to fill this role than yours truly?

With the help of this recent historical scholarship we can "put it all together " and bid Bon Voyage to these great surveyors 

Come celebrate what these men did and learn something more about its scientific importance and historical implications.  The parallels to our current time are inescapable.

The first course of the menu will be served at 7 pm, August 12. For this event we are offering wines for purchase by the glass or bottle. We will provide some suggested pairings, but you are free to make your own choices. However, a small glass of Vidal is included with the lemon cake dessert .

Please join us for a relaxing evening with great food, wine and storytelling while overlooking the Brandywine

Menu  - Hors d'Oeuvres by Betsy

First course: (PA)  mushroom paté with toast 

Second course: (DE) grilled chicken kebob with couscous salad and grilled vegetables

Sometimes one just has to acknowledge great good luck. On July 27 a microburst of wind of tornado like strength passed down Youngs Road and created devastation so great that it prevented me from returning to my home that night. However Stargazers Vineyard was unscathed.

The deadline for reserving your place at the Rendezvous with Mason & Dixon at Stargazers Vineyard August 13  is next Wednesday, August 10. We have something extra to celebrate!

The first course will be served at 7 pm. Please arrive beforehand. This year we are featuring music by Dan Spollen. Most 18th century English composers are now forgotten, but Dan will try to recreate what Mason & Dixon could have been exposed to. For this event we are simply offering wines for purchase by the glass or bottle. We will provide some suggested pairings, but you are free to make your own choices. Please join us for a relaxing evening with great food, wine and music while overlooking the Brandywine

Menu  - Hors d'Oeuvres by Betsy

First course: (PA) Mushroom Paté 

Second course: (DE) Chicken Kebob

Third course: (MD) Crab cake

Dessert: Mason Dixon marker cake with fruit stars

$30.00 per person. Prepaid Reservations required by August 10th. Call 610 486 0422 or email stargazers@kennett.net (please indicate if you require a vegetarian option)
